    Afternoon gang
    It's chilly out there peeps, so wrap up well.

    £3.20 potted today, plus 50p into the New York 2014 spending pot.

    Just put together the reindeer bells (3 little bells & some red ribbon with a name tag on) for the little girl over the road, going to sneak over to her garden on Christmas eve & pop them onto the tree for her to find Christmas morning. My DW thinks I'm a big kid at heart

    Have a great day everyone, stay safe & keep saving

    Ah, she' ignoring us, Rosy, but never fear, she can't keep quiet for too long!!! :rotfl:
    Take note of the following, girls.


    Don't wash your hair in the shower !
    It's so good to finally get a health warning that is useful! THIS INVOLVES THE SHAMPOO WHEN IT RUNS DOWN YOUR BODY WHEN YOU SHOWER WITH IT. A WARNING TO US ALL!!! Shampoo Warning! I don't know WHY I didn't figure this out sooner! I use shampoo in the shower! When I wash my hair, the shampoo runs down my whole body, and printed very clearly on the shampoo label is this warning, "FOR EXTRA BODY AND VOLUME." No wonder I have been gaining weight! Well! I got rid of that shampoo and I am going to start showering with Sunlight dishwashing liquid instead.That label reads, "DISSOLVES FAT THAT IS OTHERWISE DIFFICULT TO REMOVE." Problem solved! If I don't answer your emails, I'll be in the shower!

    I fell about when I read this Sue:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: I was always wondering what was wrong with me:rotfl: Now I know:T

    Going to pot £1 tonight. We've had an expensive weekend and probably shouldn't, but I don't think tucking away another £1 will alter that. Hope everyone is doing ok!

    Only 54p for me today, and 1p of that was roadkill. Spent to much unfortunately.

  • Evening everyone

    Potted £1 plus a little bit tonight. :D

    Debating what to do with the contents of SPC5. I think we might put it to one side for the time being as most of this Christmas stuff has been covered so far. We maybe needing a new fridge/freezer in the not too distant future and it will be great to have the funds there for when the inevitable happens. ;)

    Take care everyone
